Groping lovers:

You look at me

And I at you,

Your eyes wear an incomprehensible language

And mine are devoid of all language.

I do not understand you

But I feel you.

You do not feel me

But you understand me.

We look further, farther into each other

We unearth moments, details and memories,

It's hopeless, we taste the dust that remains.

And still the wall of silence between us

Is mightier than ever,

Yet our hunger for communication

For connection is mightier for ever.

Perhaps we cannot read each other

Perhaps the silence and all language

Is not enough to contain the way of love

We birthed for each other.

Perhaps we should part ways

And look somewhere else

into someone else

And there maybe we might find each other

Again.

But we must promise to cling into each other,

Mustn't we!

Or perhaps, let's be honest for once and ever,

That there's no perhaps for is in this life.

Let's turn back, hunch our backs in sorrow,

Look away.

Although we are meant to grope somewhere else,

I will always look for you

Anywhere

Anytime

For you are my someone and I am yours

And the way of love we birthed for each other

Is as otherworldly as ever.
